Applied Graph Transformation and Verification With Use Cases in Malaria Surveillance

IEEE Access, 2018
Malaria is one of the leading causes of death and illness in sub-Saharan Africa. In order to make timely decisions for control and elimination of malaria, researchers, and clinicians need access to integrated consistent knowledge sources. These knowledge

A Framework for Evaluating Agricultural Ontologies [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
An ontology is a formal representation of domain knowledge, which can be interpreted by machines. In recent years, ontologies have become a major tool for domain knowledge representation and a core component of many knowledge management systems, decision support systems and other intelligent systems, inter alia, in the context of agriculture.

Directly depicting granular ontologies [PDF]

, 2004
Published in extended form as "Endurants and Perdurants in Directly Depicting Ontologies", We propose an ontological theory that is powerful enough to describe both complex spatio-temporal processes and the enduring entities that ...

On the succinctness of query rewriting over shallow ontologies [PDF]

, 2014
We investigate the succinctness problem for conjunctive query rewritings over OWL2QL ontologies of depth 1 and 2 by means of hypergraph programs computing Boolean functions. Both positive and negative results are obtained.

Pathway Analyses of Inherited Neuropathies Identify Putative Common Mechanisms of Axon Degeneration

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Inherited neuropathies (IN) are associated with over 100 different genetic mutations presenting with a variety of phenotypes. This complexity suggests multiple pathways may converge onto a limited number of downstream pathways to effect axonal injury.

The OBO Foundry: Coordinated Evolution of Ontologies to Support Biomedical Data Integration [PDF]

, 2007
The value of any kind of data is greatly enhanced when it exists in a form that allows it to be integrated with other data. One approach to integration is through the annotation of multiple bodies of data using common controlled vocabularies or ...

Whole‐Blood RNA Sequencing Profiling of Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis Treated With Tofacitinib

ACR Open Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) often fail to respond to therapies, including JAK inhibitors (JAKi), and treatment allocation is made via a trial‐and‐error strategy. A comprehensive analysis of responses to JAKi, including tofacitinib, by RNA sequencing (RNAseq) would allow the discovery of transcriptomic markers with a two‐fold ...

Ontology as a Source for Rule Generation [PDF]

arXiv, 2014
This paper discloses the potential of OWL (Web Ontology Language) ontologies for generation of rules. The main purpose of this paper is to identify new types of rules, which may be generated from OWL ontologies. Rules, generated from OWL ontologies, are necessary for the functioning of the Semantic Web Expert System.

The evaluation of ontologies: Editorial review vs. democratic ranking [PDF]

, 2008
Increasingly, the high throughput technologies used by biomedical researchers are bringing about a situation in which large bodies of data are being described using controlled structured vocabularies—also known as ontologies—in order to support the ...
